Chapter 273 Mysterious Brother Bao and Recording
At 9:30 in the morning, all media and television stations and newspaper reporters in Suhang City rushed to the downstairs of the Suhang City Municipal Party Committee Office Building as soon as possible.
Because time is tight, the press conference was set at the entrance of the Municipal Party Committee Office Building, and even a simple venue was too hasty to build. Just a few tables were brought in, which was a temporary talk table.
In the open space in front of the speech table, there were densely packed with reporters. Of course, there were also some citizens who were idle and rushed over to watch the fun. These people were even more pitiful. They didn’t even have a place to sit, so they could only stand there straight, gathering together in groups of three or five, chatting and discussing.
The whole scene was as chaotic as a vegetable market!
"Secretary Wei, what do you have to say about the corruption and bribery that broke out on the Internet this morning?"
"Secretary Wei, yesterday you removed the position of Deputy Director Xie Ran. Is it really because she colluded with the social gangsters? As far as I know, many people suspect that Deputy Director Xie Ran revealed the secret of your corruption and bribery, so you were afraid that she would reveal your scandal and remove him from his position. Is that true?"
"Secretary Wei, is the second-generation official who was beaten by Chen Tiantian of Tianlong Group yesterday the son of Governor Shi Gang?"
...
One question after another was like a five hundred machine gun, which was spraying continuously, making Wei Changzheng's face look gloomy and ugly!
Seeing that the time was almost over, Wei Changzheng didn't want to wait any longer. In fact, he didn't want to be in such a torture for a minute. It was simply a matter of criticism from thousands of people. Life is better than death!
Grasping the microphone on the table, Wei Changzheng waved his hand and signaled that the audience was quiet, but then he roared, "This is slander! It is framed! It is slander!"
A roar suppressed the audience, and also expressed Wei Changzheng's anger! A cold gaze swept across the audience. Wei Changzheng paused for two or three seconds, and his tone eased a lot. "Since I became the Party Secretary of the Suzhou and Hangzhou Party Committee, Wei Changzheng did not dare to say how hard work and contributions have made great efforts to the economic construction of Suzhou and Hangzhou and how much blessings have been made for Suzhou and Hangzhou citizens, but I am worthy of my conscience, the organization's cultivation and trust in me, and I am worthy of the millions of citizens in Suzhou and Hangzhou. I have not embezzled, nor have I secretly manipulated the bidding activities of Xihu District to open a plan to fill my personal pockets. Everything about the online statement is a slander and frame-up on me, and I need to bear certain legal responsibilities!"
Although Wei Changzheng's words were passionate and righteous, it was still difficult to convince the reporters present. So the moment Wei Changzheng finished speaking, a reporter immediately asked.
"Secretary Wei, since you said that the revelations on the Internet were slander and framed you, what evidence do you have to prove what you said?"
This question is sharp and critical, and Wei Changzheng seemed to have thought of how to deal with it, and sneered on the spot: "Hmph, you ask me what evidence you have. Then let me ask you, what evidence is there for the information that was exposed online? Is it just based on that post? Just those empty words? I have evidence, do they have it?"
Everyone present was stunned, as if they thought Wei Changzheng's words were reasonable. At the same time, everyone was curious about what evidence that Wei Changzheng could prove his innocence!
"Secretary Wei, you said you have evidence. What is your evidence?"
Wei Changzheng replied again: "My evidence is the trust of millions of Suzhou and Hangzhou citizens in me. If you ask, I can also publicly let everyone see the property in my bank account. There are only a few thousand yuan in total, all of which are saved by my salary over the years. If you don't believe it, I will send my bank bill now!"
"Secretary Wei, a bank statement does not seem to be used as evidence. What if you have an account in another bank? What if you didn't receive cash at all, but the property you collected?" One of the reporters asked again.
Wei Changzheng was a little angry, but forced himself to suppress his anger and replied: "I can't prove these, but I dare to let anyone present go to every bank to check whether there is my secret account. You can also go to the Housing Administration to check if there are other real estate under my name. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of being slanted by the shadows. I, Wei Changzheng, are innocent. Even if someone from the Anti-Corruption Bureau comes to investigate, I will never be afraid!"
Speaking of which, the whole audience was silent. Looking at the righteous Wei Changzheng, even those reporters who had always spoken tricks seemed to be a little silly at this moment, because Wei Changzheng said that even if the people from the Anti-Corruption Bureau came, he was not afraid.
This sentence seems to be enough to prove his innocence. Otherwise, how could he dare to face the people from the Provincial Anti-Corruption Bureau calmly? Could it be that he was really just falsely accused?
Compared to Wei Changzheng's public bank account and a series of evidence presented by someone who asked him to go to the Housing Administration to investigate real estate, etc., the post on the Internet that only has hundreds of words but does not have a trace of evidence seems to be less credible.
Even curious reporters couldn't help but start to secretly guess whether the person who broke the news on this post deliberately took revenge on Wei Changzheng?
"Secretary Wei, you said you were framed, so would someone deliberately take revenge on you? Who do you think the person on this post might be?" asked a reporter.
When Wei Changzheng heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He knew that the reason why this reporter asked this was because he believed what he had just said and began to doubt the online post. This was definitely a great thing for Wei Changzheng.
"I don't know if someone wants to deliberately retaliate against me. Even if it is revenge, I don't know who the post is. But except for the position of Deputy Director Xie Ran yesterday, I don't seem to offend anyone recently!" Wei Changzheng said.
"What? You suspect that the person who posted is Xie Ran?" Everyone present was very surprised.
Wei Changzheng shook his head, "I didn't say that. In fact, I removed Xie Ran from his post yesterday and was just a matter of official business. It's not considered an offense! She shouldn't have revenge on me with such a post!"
On the surface, it seems that Wei Changzheng is really defending Xie Ran, but in fact the focus of his words is still on the matter of his removal from Xie Ran's post, which seems to be deliberately emphasizing!
But the reporters can't control these things. They are not policemen and will not dig out the truth about what is the matter. All they want is explosive news and a focus that can attract people's eyes.
The focus now is that Wei Changzheng's involvement in corruption and bribery is likely to be the revenge of Xie Ran, who was removed from office! Although all this is just speculation, Wei Changzheng and Xie Ran's position in this matter suddenly changed. It seems that Wei Changzheng is the party of justice, and Xie Ran has become a degenerate demon!
The situation changed and there was a huge change. Everyone present was a little unacceptable. At this moment, a citizen who was playing with a tablet computer in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Look, everyone, the posts on the Internet have been updated. This time the post also posted evidence, it was a telephone recording!"
"Telephone recording?" Everyone present was stunned. This sentence undoubtedly once again ignited the passion of the audience. Now that the technology has reached the level of the post, almost everyone can view the post directly on their mobile phones. After seeing this, there is a recording of the phone that has just been uploaded below the post!
Wei Changzheng's expression stagnated, his heart pounded wildly, and an extremely bad premonition suddenly rushed into his heart...
Everyone present was attracted by this recording at this moment. No one paid attention to Wei Changzheng's change in expression. He almost did not hesitate. Everyone clicked to play the recording. Suddenly, such a conversation broke out in the audience at the same time.
...
"I poke it, brother, your identity is so awesome. It turns out that you are the young master of Secretary Wei, no wonder, but since that's the case, you won't be in trouble if you collect that Mercedes-Benz, right? Do you want to call your dad to ask for his opinion?"
"Brother Bao, what do you mean? Could it be that you want to take that Mercedes-Benz back?"
"Hey, how can this be? Brother Bao absolutely keeps his word. The problem is that he is afraid that your father will disagree, so you should call him to ask for his opinion. If he says ok, I will give you the car key now. In addition, brother has another thing to bother you."
"Brother Bao, you are too careful, don't worry, someone asked my dad to do business in the past, and I would come directly to me. If I pick up the things, it means my dad will take them. There is no problem at all, but what else do you think?"
...
When the recording was played here, everyone was shocked. It was obvious from the recording that one of them was the "Brother Bao" who sent Mercedes-Benz. However, Brother Bao's voice has been professionally processed. Although it is still clear, it is difficult to hear whether it is a man or a woman, and it is even less age-old!
Everyone expressed that they could understand this point. It should be that the person who broke the news did not want to get involved in this war, and they were even more afraid that Wei Changzheng would be unfavorable to him. This was for the sake of personal safety.
As for the other person, his voice did not change at all. It was easy to hear the voice of a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, and the boy's identity was Wei Changzheng's son!
At this time, Wei Changzheng's face was pale. So many people played the recording at the same time. He had already heard the sound clearly. Now, he really realized that he had indeed been trapped this time, otherwise the conversation between "Brother Bao" and his son would not have been recorded.
When Wei Changzheng thought of his cautiousness and caution for the rest of his life, he was finally trapped in the hands of his son, so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Secretary Wei, after listening to this recording, what else do you have to say?"
"Yes, no wonder you dare to publicly show your bank account to everyone, no wonder you dare to let everyone go to the Housing Administration to check the property under your name. It turns out that you actually asked your own son to embezzle and accept bribes for you, and you have all the things you have obtained in his name. You are so innocent. This is probably the reason why you are not afraid to report to the Anti-Corruption Bureau to investigate, right?"
